ECONOMIC OBLIVION IS A EUROPEAN CHOICE | As EU Confirms Economic Punishments On China, U.S. Panics Over Impending Iran Oil Attack

In oil attacks on Iran and possible blockades of countries only three words matter in geopolitics: "Strait of Hormuz.” Yep a 17 mile wide stretch of water that both Oman and Iran share. Over the last couple of years Poletme Aviation Videos , a Russian traveller who basically just flies in all kinds of planes and helicopters around the world, especially over Russia mainly but also over and around Iran.

His travel filming documents the physical geographic landscape which has given me a sense of how narrow the Strait of Hormuz actually is and that there is also an Iranian beach resort island, Red Beach, in the Strait that just lies offshore the coast. Given that there are Iranian oil loading ports in the Strait as cwell though not all would give me pause for thought of trying ...

Prof. Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi - A Lecture well worth listening to

My Fellow Duranians, Good Day!

I would kindly ask ALL members who are interested to first watch the attached 3 hour discussion in it´s entirety and contemplate what your question would be IF it were not answered in the discussion.

Last night on the Medical Doctors for CoVid Ethics International (MD4CEI), Professor Doctor Sucharit Bhakdi was invited to speak to a group of medical experts, journalists and various pundits.

I had the privilege to first be in a live lecture with the good professor as well as being able to ask the first open round question.

My second question was not of medical nature but more for our community here, where I asked Prof. Bhakdi if he would be open to speaking to us here should there be any further questions that were not asked last night or any follow up questions. and he was only to willing to join us should this be the case.

I am leaving this post up for 3 days, so the whole community has the opportunity to read this and then listen to the whole lecture....

The charade of 'negotiations' which has taken place in Berlin is now over and all the indications are that the war in Ukraine will not only continue but will only end when the Russians have won a military victory. Indeed Putin has all but said as much today. That victory draws ever closer, with claimed Ukrainian 'victories' in Kupiansk and Novorossiysk exposed as media fabrications.

Meanwhile I notice that the US, having accepted wholesale Zelensky's and the UK/EU's 'revisions' to its 'peace proposals', is once again discussing further sanctions. The Europeans for their part are pressing forward with their plan to misappropriate the Russian assets and have also begun punishing dissidents, starting with Xavier Moreau and Jacques Baud.

In some respects this is all clarifying and I suspect that there are quite a few people in Russia who will be privately relieved by it.

Meanwhile Western economies continue to sink, living standards stagnate, and the Trump administration embraces - as ...

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"
I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad ! 

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY  this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

 

Hope to see you all asap.
